Want to help out at a Homebrew competition?

The Hops Shack is hosting the east region of the BJCP sanctioned 2011 Homebrewtalk.com homebrewing competition on Saturday, 3/26, and we need your help!

We'll need stewards (15) and cellar masters(2) to help bring beer to judges, keep beers cold, collect score sheets and plenty of other things throughout the day. Plus, you get to finish off beers that the judges no longer need. There will be a maximum of 300 beers in this competition, so there will be a minimum of 2 judging flights - one in the late morning and one in the afternoon.

Please contact Kyle if you are interested in participating in this or would like additional information.

1st Meeting of 2011

We'll be meeting on Wednesday, 1/26, 6:30pm at the Hops Shack. There's no topic yet, so we're open to suggestions.

Beer & cheese sampling on 11/5!

Some of you have already seen this via facebook, but for those of you who haven't, there will be a beer & cheese pairing/sampling at The Beer Corner next Friday, 11/5 from 6-9pm.

For more information, please contact me directly via email or phone, or visit facebook.com/ltbeercorner.

The next MALTZ meeting will be held sometime in November. Updates to follow.

April meeting + Brew day

Reminder that the April meeting is Saturday, April 24th at Kyle and Emily's house, starting around 3. Feel free to bring your gear and brew!

Feel free to bring a food dish to share at the meeting, since we'll be in the middle of brewing around dinner time (or bring some money and we can all chip in on pizzas).

We will be reviewing BJCP Category 14 - IPA's, so bring a bottle or two of your favorite IPA.

Hope to see you all then.
